Stone Princess (Tin Gypsy, #3)
BLURB:
Presley Marks has just become a cliché: the jilted bride. Wearing a white dress, standing in front of her friends and family, she announces that her fiancé—according to his text—has forgotten about the wedding.
Humiliated and angry, she hides from the world in the mundane routine of her life. Working at the Clifton Forge Garage isn’t glamorous, but it’s safe from the spotlight.
At least it was, until Shaw Valance comes to town.
The notorious Hollywood actor is starring in a movie based on the town’s infamous murder. When he’s not on set, Shaw hovers at the garage, watching as they build his custom motorcycle and irritating her with his handsome smile. He was supposed to leave once filming wrapped and go back to his fancy life, not buy the house next door.
But Shaw might regret that purchase once Presley’s ex-fiancé returns, bringing with him a war between old rivals that could burn both their houses down.

REVIEW:
I loved this book so hard! It had all the elements that I loved from the Jamison Valley series and the suspense from Gypsy King, the first in this series. Presley and Shaw are by far my favorite couple in this series so far, I adore how much Shaw is so swoony with Pres, their relationship was a wonderful angst build up and the suspense and unknown about their pasts and their current future kept me hooked.Stone Princess follow Presley who works a the local clifton forge garage and is close friend with Dash who owns the garage after his father whom was Pres' father figure passed. Now if you haven't read the past books, stop now and make sure you do because a lot of what happens discuss' the past characters. Presley and her friends are on tense ground because hollywood is making a story about the towns local murder which involved Dash and Genevieve's father and Gens mother. Hollywood star actor Shaw Valance is acting and producing this movie and wants to meet those involved without being pushy. Of course Pres doesn't like the idea of the movie and she and Shaw get off to a rocky start. But thing change when Pres meets the man behind the acting, however temporary they both are not prepared for what happens next.
I loved this book, I'm not sure what it was about these two but they really spoke to me. I loved the normality of Shaw how he wasn't an arrogant hollywood type and he truly care about the story and accuracy to make sure he new the truth. I was also thrilled to get to know Presley more, she was an awesome side character in the past books and I loved her attitude and was sadden by her background. But she really was a tough cookie and Shaw brought out the light in her.
I cant wait for the next books, I know for sure who its about after the ending here but I so cant wait for Emmets book, I want that like yesterday!
